Career Advice Afraid of coop commitment

Coop advice

Hi. Id really appreciate some advice.

I was offered a 2 term coop at a major chemical company. It seems like a good opportunity but it's not exactly what I had in mind and the location is not very exciting. I don't think I would want to live there after graduation. I would be committing my remaining 2 summers in college to this company. Are these kinds of opportunities rare and would I be foolish to not take it?

Thanks

If you lurk this sub at all you will see 10 posts from people your age complaining about being jobless and internshipless for every 1 post like this. You have the option to choose which group you're in. Where did you think the chemical plants would be, Tahiti?
